Royal Caribbean Symphony of the Seas Cruise Reviews

This ship has a lot of positive coverage on YouTube, but we feel the reality fell short. The main problem was the lack of ocean views and this is probably the main reason we didn’t enjoy the cruise compared to smaller ships. The only place with good water views is the buffet. Everywhere else feels like a high end mall or Las Vegas. If you don’t have a balcony room, you can easily go the whole day ...

I’m very sick after one week cruise. The music are too loudly. The food was terrible! The fruits was over pass. The doctor was not a good and very expensive. The crews don’t know the right answer. The house keeps makes was too loudly. The towels was old and no quality. I will never recommend it!!! I got sick, I lost my money plus my international ticket. The medicine stand was empty. No taste ...

This has been the largest ship we have been on. There was not one problem at all. We had our dinners in the main dining room. Every night was different. There was something on the menu for everyone. The quality was excellent. The service was also exceptional. For our age group, mid 50's, The entertainment was non stop. We enjoyed all the shows, casino, and music around the ship. Everyone was ...

My wife and I just returned from a week long cruise on the Symphony of the Seas out of Barcelona. We stayed in the 1 bedroom Aqua Suite (Sky class suite), my thoughts are detailed below: Embarkation - absolutely amazing. Perhaps it was because we were in Suite Class or maybe RC has just really improved this since I first cruised with them, but we go onto the ship in about 5 minutes after ...

We went on this cruise to celebrate two special birthdays. The whole trip was a fantastic experience. Staff were all lovely, our stateroom was very nice with a comfortable bed and loads of storage. We made the most of our drinks package by having lots of cocktails. It was great having the live Reggie band in the afternoons while sitting by the pool. The Windjammer was perfect for breakfast and ...

OMG. Where do I even start. I'm cured of ever wanting to go on a cruise again and I've only been on 2. The chaos an amateurishness of the embarkation process was my first clue. Total nightmare. Before the cruise, I spent weeks emailing back and forth with the special needs department and filling out the required forms and found out on the first night that NONE of the information about my ...

Crew A+ Waitstaff and housekeeping steward…. Food mediocre, chops grill steak inferior filet mignon cut and sides came out cold. Windjammer worst buffet experience, food and presentation, main dining room waitstaff great….food menu disappointing and mediocre. Solarium great at night, chaotic for breakfast and food selection much like a school cafeteria. Future cruise department was a ...

We have travelled on 16 cruises all around the world on 7 different cruise lines; this was the most disappointing we have ever had for many reasons... Here are our main gripes:- The sundecks 15 & 16 are abysmal, the whole area covered in loungers lined up tight side by side with no side entry and roped in position unable to turn towards the sun and near impossible to get on ! On our cruise with ...

Just returned from the Symphony of the Seas transatlantic sailing – Miami to Barcelona. We cruise a lot, our third in six months but for whatever reason have not had occasion to cruise RCCL since 2014. Things have changed. FOOD What is going on with RCCL's food service? ALL the food - even in the specialty restaurants was of a noticeably lower quality than the ships we've been on recently ...

It’s been 7 years since we were on Allure of the Seas, and I’ve been waiting for a good deal on an Oasis class ship. This transatlantic cruise was priced so low that we were easily temped to book it. There was only one port initially (Malaga), with the ship was heading for dry-dock afterwards. A few weeks later we were pleased to learn another port (Valencia) has been added. We arrived ...
